Installing ROMS on Xiaomi POCO F3 With TWRP

For example, we’ll use the latest firmware from Xiaomi.eu and MIUIMIX. In case you’ve already done any of the steps below, just skip them and proceed where you stopped previously.

Note! You must disable Magisk features if you have these enabled before flashing / updating, otherwise you can get a bootloop.

Unlock the booloader on your device. Check our blog, in case you need additional instructions on that topic.
Flash the following ROM version via fastboot: xiaomi.eu 21.4.28
1. Download xiaomi.eu 21.4.28: Android Filehost | Sourceforge
2. Pay attention that all data will be wiped during installation.
3. Unpack downloaded archive to an empty folder.
4. Start your device in fastboot mode.
5. Start the windows_fastboot_first_install_with_data_format.bat
6. In case you want to proceed with update, use the windows_fastboot_update_rom.bat (personal data won’t be removed in this case).
Boot into the system with newly installed ROM and setup the password.
Now download and copy TWRP, Magisk 23 (optionally) and latest version of Xiaomi.EU 21.5.20 ROM (or MIUIMIX – sourceforce / android file host, upon your choice).
Boot into fastboot mode once again and flash temp TWRP.
Boot into temporary TWRP Custom Recovery and flash TWRP permanently into Recovery Ramdisk.
Reboot into newly installed TWRP from the active TWRP to make sure that everything is flashed correctly. Now flash previously copied xiaomi.eu 21.5.20 for TWRP without any wipes right on 21.4.28. version.
To enable root on your device you need to flash previously downloaded Magisk.apk and then install this app as usual from the system (it’s required after flashing it’s firstly to create a required files, before installing an app).
In case you want to flash miuimix, then just install it instead of xiaomi.eu 21.5.20 and additionally, after flashing, you’ll need to repeat the step 6 and flash TWRP into Recovery Ramdisk once again. Same thing for Magisk.

We wish you good luck with the guide above. If you’ve successfully followed this guide, then next update will be much faster and easier.

Poco is Xiaomi’s flagship killer brand and the Pocophone F3 is the newest model out there. It has incredible specs and the design of the phone gives off a premium feel without going over the board.

The display is a 6.67″ 1080p AMOLED 120Hz display with support for HDR10+ and a peak brightness of 1300 nits. It looks absolutely incredible and there is absolutely nothing to complain about here. The tiny hole punch cutout for the selfie camera takes up very little space and gives the phone an 85.9% screen-to-body ratio.

Speaking of the selfie camera, it is a 20MP Samsung shooter that takes sharp and natural-looking photos with good dynamic range. The triple rear camera layout has a 48MP Sony Quad-Bayer sensor, an 8MP Sony ultrawide, and a 5MP Samsung macro camera. The photos are only 12MP by default, which you can change in the settings. The photos look great with a high dynamic range and natural lighting.

The Poco F3 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 5G Octa-core processor with Adreno 650 GPU and it is built on the 7 nm process. It is a blazing fast phone thanks to its flagship specs and 360Hz touch sampling rate. The UFS 3.1 storage comes in two options: 128GB/6GB RAM and 256GB/8GB RAM.

There is a side-mounted fingerprint scanner and stereo speakers but there is no water or dust resistance. The phone is still well-built with Gorilla Glass 5 on both sides of the phone and an aluminum frame. The curves of the phone allow it to sit naturally in your hand.

The battery is 4520 mAh Li-po and it supports 33W fast charging that goes 0 to 100% in 52 minutes thanks to Quick Charge 3+. And the software is MIUI 12 based on Android 11 with a few minor differences made by Poco.
